It’s that time of the week, welcome back!
Episode 24 is already upon us, and James McGraw has been sitting on this rad clip for a couple of weeks now. I don’t know what was harder for him, the opening double inside switch-b turbine out to switch foot peg wheelie filmed at this backyard riding spot or keeping the clip off line (insert sarcasm). Anyone who knows James will know what I am talking about..

Thanks James for contributing towards the culture. Who’s got the next clip? Episode 25 drops this Sunday 5pm GMT….

September is always one of the busiest months of the year, and this year was absolutely off the chart. Take a check through my highlights and you will see what I mean!

September 4th will be remembered for Martti Kuoppa’s, 10 Stemlashes! You can always count on the boss to raise the stakes, as if this isn’t enough the description hints of a return to KGB? Great news! Someone looks like they are ready for flatark…
